resolved: OpenLink / PHP odbc_exec problems

Hi George, et al. Thanks for everyone's attention to the odbc_exec and odbc_do problems when connecting to SQLServer or Ingres. We are in final QA for Openlink's 4.0 version of the Multi-Tier drivers. As well as several performance enhancements and greater platform / database support, we have resolved an issue that required using a combination of odbc_prepare and odbc_execute (which call SQLPrepare and SQLExecute) in place of either odbc_exec or odbc_do (which instead use SQLDirectExec), when migrating from PHP3 to PHP4. We've just completed verification that everything works fine with: 4.0.5-dev snaps of PHP 4.0 pre-release of Multi-Tier UDA Linux glibc2.1 client SQLServer 7 / 2000 and Ingres II running on various platforms. If anyone need advance copies of our drivers due to this issue, please contact me and I will have an account manager release a copy to you ASAP. The 4.0 drivers are significantly faster and more functional (all components multi-threaded, ODBC-to-JDBC bridge, full ODBC3.5 support, etc.) and will be available for general release in a couple of weeks.
